Testicular Cancer

Diagnosis & Testing

Testicular Cancer Is Missed By Doctors the First Time Around 30% of the Time

When a man's symptoms suggest that there might be cancer in a testicle, a personal and family medical history is taken and a complete physical examination is conducted. In addition to checking general signs of health (temperature, pulse, blood pressure, and so on), the scrotum will be carefully examined. The patient will usually have an ultrasound, a chest x-ray, and blood and urine tests.
